P.J. Mattson
Mountain Geography. Steam, diesel; freight, passenger, and special run equipment. Double track main line, horseshoe curve, with bridge and local traffic from RVR, PRR, RDG, LV, CNJ, NYC, WM, PRSL, D&H. Walk around layout design. AP-Awards: Golden Spike, Association Volunteer. Fully operating signal system assists operation on the Racoon Valley Railroad. Digitrax made special boosters so that PJ could use his existing signal system when he switched to DCC.

Good operation and scenery are hallmarks of this fine layout.
